Post Sandy, FEMA Provides Disaster Recovery Checklist

Yesterday, FEMA stopped by Guilford Community Center's Emergency Shelter to provide a Disaster Recovery Checklist for Guilford Residents. If you are interested in applying for aid after Sandy's impact, please refer to the following checklist for instructions:

1.) Call your insurance company

2.) Register with FEMA for assistance-

• Call 1-800-621-3362 (Video Relay Service and 711 also available)
• TTY: 1-800-462-7585
• Or Visit www.DisasterAssistance.gov

3.) Write down and save your 9-digit FEMA registration number

4.) Meet with the FEMA housing inspector

5.) Complete and return the SBA application immediately if you receive one

6.) Call FEMA if you receive any letters I do not understand or if you have not heard from FEMA within a two-week period

7.) Tell FEMA about any changes in your status... address, phone number, insurance payments

**Please note: FEMA merely handed out a copy of this information at the Emergency Shelter to provide a checklist, which is where Guilford Patch received the information. There is NO way to apply at the Community Center, it all has to be done through FEMA online or through their contact information. Thank you.**
